doing well. nice breakfast, i highly recommend.
breakfast: egg whites (cup) w. spray oil , and spinach omelette: 220. :) small bit of mustard.
snack/lunch: protein shakes w. much fiber: 270
snack: more shake: 270, beans and almonds 160 (i'm obsessed)
snack: pepper 40
huge dinner: big stirfry, salad, tofu, more beans/almonds 600...and two servings almonds for dessert: 340 more. dinner a bit nutty. haha. a big large.
total: 1900. could have been lower. but all low carb. :) I'm going to work HARDER. and i figure i'll have shakes on the weekends. like i did today. we'll see...
i know i have lost at least 3-4 pounds. i can feel it. no, i haven't weighed myself. at first i said i would everyday, but i don't really like being obsessed with the scale.
Progress as of today: -12 lbs lost so far, only 17 lbs to go!
3.5 miles at the park.
i have some plans for today which is a very good thing for me. i have to finish filling out my second and last application which includes writing a short essay. then, i will go to the gym and spend one hour on the elliptical and stretch, do abs, and push ups! :) I'm meeting a friend at 6 for coffee and then a movie.
thank you ALL for the advice you gave concerning the florida guy. it really helps to hear what you all have to say. and i will NEVER be upset by any comment. i listen and think about them all. it has been a difficult situation and i've put too much time and effort into prolonging something that if he doesn't want more of then i should be contacting him anymore. if only he would say "i see us as just friends." seems he doesn't know how.
as for the boy, i will once again have to be "over him." he hasn't called me again. and it is safe to assume he's really not interested in more than friendship. so, i'm going to have to let him go. at least until he contacts me. i'm not contacting him anymore. when i want to text him, i'll text one of my girlfriends intead! haha. it's going to be back to basics. no more florida guy obsession. that is all. and NO phone conversations late at night. i missed a lot of sleep this week and was in a terrible mood all week. i KNOW next week is going to be MUCH better. it saddens me that i have to let this guy go from my mind. but that is the obvious course of action. he's lost out. i don't think he'll ever get married. he plays a different sport 5 days out of the week (one day being saturday). so he knows how to fill up his time without having a relationship or anything like that.
doing well this morning. woke up and had a nice, large, satisfying breakfast.
breakfast: 3 egg whites90, turkey 40, spray 50, 2 pcs cheese 220 approx, 2 glasses milk 200. total: 600. fine. :)
snack/lunch: ...lots of snacking...800 total
total so far: 1400 eew. not great. it's 12:30 in the afternoon....next food will be a protein shake after the gym or park and before going out for coffee/movie.
snack: 2 protein shakes: 180, 270: 450
total so far: 1850..plus drink vitamins/mix 1870.
dunkin donuts before movie: ?? decaf iced coffee:150
total: 2000. not bad. NO MORE DAIRY TILL APRIL 20! I am gonna ROCK this challenge. I am there! only nuts, veggies, and proteins! BRING IT ON!
strange. no real dinner will be had today. going for coffee around 6 and a movie after. today's my last day for dairy. i will miss it! for the month of March i will try to purchase fish more often. and make sure to always have veggies on hand. i can do this. i can make a huge difference of my weight between now and April 19. I know I can do it....I did it this way once before. and went from 115 to 105 in about 40 days. this time my weight is much higher so i know it's possible. :)
Progress as of today: -12 lbs lost so far, only 17 lbs to go!
Have great time watching the movie & having coffee! See ya tomorrow!!!!
it's been a long, extremely agitating week. lots of class and little excitment. along with just a few tests, thankfully. but lots of annoying things in the process. some good things went on but all of the negative things stick out in my mind. i'm VERY annoyed with myself for speaking my mind again to the florida guy. and sometimes i wish i hadn't stayed in touch with him. now i will work on getting him out of my mind. i promise myself i will NOT text him (unless it's to answer a text from him) until April. the end. and NO staying up late bc of him. the end.
tomorrow's my LAST day of dairy until April 19, 2009. I need to do this for myself. A month and 19 days goes fast. i gotta do it.
breakfast milk, omelette w. spinach: 250
snack: almonds 250
lunch: 270 lots of beans/almonds, olive oil, and a coffee.

Take good care of yourself.
Have a good night's rest and a great weekend!
so this guy: he hasn't had a gf since high school and he's my age, 26. he's in one state, and i'm miles away in another. we've known each other since college. only hung out a few times though but have kept in touch on and off for 5 years. lately, we've been staying in touch pretty well. texting a lot. finally spoke to him on the phone two night ago. i've told him in the past how i've felt about him. he never can respond. he literally says NOTHING. not that he thinks of me only of a friend, not that he likes me, not that he hates me! lol. nothing. but, there's one thing i know, it seems he doesn't mind my texts or phone calls. so, i have no clue what his deal is. at all. it's frustrating but i guess i can just take it as he sees me and enjoys having me as a friend. the problem is i wish there were more. obviously that is not at all possible since we don't even live in the same state. however, we he comes here, i always hope we could hang out one on one. not with his friends. and if that's not possible, i'm going to have to stop having any feels for him like that...because it means i should move on. i don't know if he wants to hang out one on one. i mentioned it on the phone two nights ago saying when are we hanging out/gonig to the bar. haha. he never really did give a straight answer. not sure what his deal is. at all.
and it's frustrating as anything! this has been going on for months, actually!
today while in the hospital an entire cup of soda fell on my lap. i was wearing WHITE scrubs. so my pants became TRANSPARENT! see through! thank god there was a uniform store right next door! so another $15 dollars out the door. at least the new scrubs I bought today are bought are nice. lol
breakfast, later snacks: 300
lunch: around 350 i think.
snack: 300...but then followed directly by early dinner and mini eating attack sorta:
early dinner: tofu, broccoli, olive oil, and a little gazpacho which wasn't good: 325...followed by: salad w. light dressing 50, beans and more means w. almonds: 260, and some PEANUT BUTTER, finishing off the jar 500. haha. total here: 1140. eh, it's over.
total today: 2090. makes me wanna go to the gym. but i'm NOT. will be in bed early, gym tomorrow though. :)
Progress as of today: -14 lbs lost so far, only 24 lbs to go!

wow. nice job to me. very happy with this number...although i must say i am even more happy with low carb eating. for some reason i was really shakey before dinner, which is weird, bc usually when eating low carb you lose a lot of that shakey/low sugar feelings. i'm good now. so glad i'm still having dairy. will possibly continue with dairy if the weightloss is really good...if not i'll have to remove it. but, dairy satisfies me and i like having it so i'll try hard not to have to remove it until i must since i need to look leaner for the wedding coming up!
exercise: one hour again elliptical at gym. no abs, no pushups. stretching.
have a good day.
going to clean the bathroom....i've put it off for too long!
Progress as of today: -14 lbs lost so far, only 24 lbs to go!
As for weighing every day...I think it's a good idea!
Big smile to you! :-)
Re: How old is your g'ma ~ She turned 90 in October.... She is a couple weeks ( suppose to be ) from going back home to live independently... She is recouping from shunt surgery & a couple complications, but GOING HOME... minues her lil' companion dog who had to be put down (cancer), so I hope she does o.k. and not get too lonely... We will visit her as much as possible..... We make the rounds every weekend we can usually, as it is easier for us to be on the move than for my parent's, g'ma & aunt to come out to us.... Can't get back time in making memories and reflecting upon ones already made....

Thanks for the advice, and I was very happy to have your support through this part of my journey, but my diet diaries days are over, i cant take people lecturing me on how young i am and how this is unhealthy, and someone even thought i was pretending to be a thirteen year old girl. its just very hard for me to not listen to what others say, and on here a lot of comments were great (like yours) but the ones that were hurtful ruined my day, sometimes even more than one day, and i cant deal with that.
Beth201P on 03/01/2009:
Thanks for the comment. You look like you are staying on a good eating menu. Keep it up and have a wonderful week.
WI3 on 03/01/2009:
Hey HOP, best of luck to you with everything. My biggest piece of advice...focus on yourself, your health goals, your personal fitness goals. I know it is hard when all your friends are getting hooked up, engaged, married, having children,etc. but I consider you a progressive woman...a woman who is going to be able to take care of herself by herself and who will be able to bring positive changes to many people around her in her lifetime. You are so much more than the smaller picture. And your turn will come. You are an amazing person and have encouraged me many times even when you didn't know it. Take care!
grumpy on 03/01/2009:
Hey girl. im back. ill be catching up little by little, but glad to hear you lost some weight and arent really obsessing about the numbers. love!
thinnside40 on 03/01/2009:
